Jameer Nelson sorry about ejection

November 25, 2010|By Zach McCann, Orlando Sentinel

Orlando Magic guard Jameer Nelson is an even-keeled guy; you never see him too mad, and you never see him too excited. That's why it was so rare to see him ejected on Wednesday night against the Miami Heat.

It was the first ejection of Nelson's career, and it came with 39 seconds left in the fourth quarter when he was whistled for his second technical foul of the game. He received his first tech with 3:44 left in the third quarter.

On the first tech, he was arguing with a call. On the second tech, he was talking trash. But they both garnered the same result.

Nelson felt bad about the incident after the game. He sounded heartfelt when he talked about the ejection -- you can see that video after the jump.
